Endlich komplett J. 387 1951-1974 5 DM Satz

[NDROb]

I set a goal for the year 2020 to complete my 5 DM set and get all 73 coins graded by PCGS. After much time (and money) wasted, I have achieved that goal. I think it is a very attractive set. It is not perfect, and I hope to improve it gradually over time. I thought I'd share it here with my German speaking brethren since there is almost nobody that cares about this type of thing in the United States.

Congrats, this is an impressive Collection and still enough room to improve gradually.
Even the 58J in MS63 is a very nice one !
Thanks for sharing !!

Nice to see that these coins are also appreciated elsewhere in the world, and not just as junk silver.
We just recently speculated about the remaining DM amounts that are in collections worldwide (or owned by silver coin hoarders).
Several billions worth of DM are still out there somewhere.

I think around 50 of the coins I purchased from dealers and auctions in Germany over the last few years. The remaining ~20-25 were obtained in North America. I suppose they all come from Germany, one way or another.
